I rise to present a petition on behalf of the residents of Coventry South regarding post office services in the Quinton Park area of Cheylesmore. The petition notes the vital services local post offices provide and highlights the importance of them being easily accessible for those with mobility issues. It further notes that since the Daventry Road post office in Cheylesmore closed, there has been a loss of service in this area. The petitioners therefore urge the House of Commons to support better provision of post offices in the community and specifically for a post office to open that serves the community of Quinton Park, Cheylesmore.

Following is the full text of the petition:

[The petition of residents of the constituency of Coventry South

Declares that local Post Offices provide a vital service for the community, further declares that it is particularly important that they are nearby and easily accessible for older people and people with mobility difficulties, notes that the closure of Daventry Road Post Office in Cheylesmore, Coventry, resulted in the loss of this service in the area.

The petitioners therefore urge the House of Commons to support better provision of Post Offices in the community, and specifically for the Post Office on Daventry Road to serve the community of Quinton Park, Cheylesmore, Coventry.

And the petitioners remain, etc.]
